- Original description
The purpose of this research is to determine if the electrophysiologic data collected from standard-of-care microelectrode recordings during human deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery will be the same using the MAVEN device compared with the standard Alpha Omega device with either a tungsten standard-of-care microelectrode (for microelectrode recordings), or a carbon-fiber microelectrode (for neurotransmitter recordings). The number of microelectrodes used for both the tungsten and the carbon-fiber version will be the same as the standard-of-care.Read full original descriptionShow less

Inclusion: Mayo Clinic patients already scheduled to undergo DBS surgery with Dr. Kendall Lee fora movement disorder.
Exclusion: Patients not approved for DBS surgery by the multidisciplinary DBS committee.
